Only one in the US, <300 with the same last name. I think there are a couple with my name in the UK though.

116 with the same last name.

1 or less with the same exact name.

Considering my dad has the same name, I don't think the website is very accurate.

1,564 with my first name, 657 with my last name, and I'm the only one with the combination.

I've never met someone in the US with my first or last name that wasn't a family member. They're out there but rare.

EDIT: Looks like the 1564 number has come up a lot for the less common first names.

I have about ten that have my last name and that includes my four kids. In fact, my last name is not truly my historical last name as the original was changed when my great, great grandparents migrated from Poland into New York. They were forced to change their name as they got off the boat.
